"Oh, it smells so good ~"
Tapir had a mace in his left hand and a hammer in his right hand. He was grinning happily.
After waiting for so long, he could finally have a proper meal. After waiting for so long, he could finally fulfill one of his wishes.
"Huala... Huala..."
Jiang Xiaofan rubbed the Monstrous Toad Lion Head in his hand, making a series of soft sounds.
He sat on the edge of the bed and watched the weapons in front of him let out a sigh of relief, "Tapir, don't forget what I told you."
The Tapir nodded repeatedly. "No problem. Leave this to me and the old man."
Hen Zhu rolled his eyes, "It's your food, it's none of my business."
"You say it like you didn't eat a lot of dans." Tapir laughed coldly and retorted.
Jiang Xiaofan watched the two of them hurt each other with a smile, then he raised his arms, stretched, and walked out of the room.
Outside the room, it was still in the silence of the night. The sky was turning bright. Jiang Xiaofan walked out of the room. The three brothers also woke up early.
The four of them looked at each other and smiled at each other. They had a tacit understanding.
Today was a very important day for the royal city. The opening of the Palace Dwellers' Underground Dragon Vein meant a group of powerful warriors would return in half a year!
The spiritual power of the Dragon Vein was abundant, but it was also very unstable. It was fine for one or two people to cultivate near it, but a large group of hundreds of people would absorb a large amount of spiritual power from the Dragon Vein. It would cause the Dragon Vein to be very unstable.
The Dragon Vein was the foundation of a country, the root of spiritual power. How could it be taken lightly?
Usually, there were only two elders of the Long Clan and three elders of the Bai Clan who cultivated in the Dragon Vein. The rest of the people in the Palace Dwellers' Pavilion were people without any foundation.
To put it bluntly, they were useless people who could not cultivate. Only these people would not share the spiritual power with the three old men!
Jiang Xiaofan brought the three brothers to wait outside the palace. Not long after, a group of people walked out of the palace.
Looking over, it was none other than the current Emperor, Long Tian!
A few small palanquins followed behind the dragon sedan. Inside were Long Xi, Bai Yichen, and the rest. Jiang Xiaofan was a little surprised by this lineup. Was Long Tian also going to the Immortal Abode to cultivate?
Filled with doubts, everyone stopped in front of Jiang Xiaofan. As Long Tian's attendant shouted, "Alight the palanquin!"
The dragon sedan was lowered, the footstool was placed, and the curtains were lifted. That guy was really not particular. If Jiang Xiaofan was served like this, he would probably only feel fresh for two days at most. If he was asked to do this again, he would probably go crazy.
Long Tian walked out of the palanquin. Long Xi and Bai Yichen also walked down. Today, they were dressed in luxurious brocade robes and had light makeup on. The two little girls actually made their already handsome faces even more beautiful.
A fat middle-aged man in a black robe accompanied Long Tian and walked towards Jiang Xiaofan. Just as he stood still, the man saw that Jiang Xiaofan actually did not bow and immediately reprimanded him angrily, "The Emperor is benevolent. Why aren't you kneeling?"
Jiang Xiaofan stood upright without a trace of fear on his face. This caused Long Xi and Bai Yichen, who were not far away, to be flustered.
"There is gold under a man's knees. In this life, apart from the mother who gave birth to me, the father who raised me, the person who saved my life, and the person who taught me wisdom, I will kneel. I will never kneel to anyone else!" Jiang Xiaofan replied firmly.
"You …"
The middle-aged man was about to teach Jiang Xiaofan a lesson when Long Tian raised his hand to stop him. "As long as Xi'er's illness can be cured, I don't care about anything else."
The moment he said that, Bai Yichen and Long Xi behind him heaved a long sigh of relief. However, there was one person present who was extremely displeased — the middle-aged man in black!
Jiang Xiaofan had never added him, but his name was like thunder to the ears!
There was a token on his waist that was engraved with golden inscriptions. The token shone with a golden glow and contained a high amount of Dragon Gold. It was even comparable to the City King Sword.
There was only one person in the Imperial Capital who had such a token — Mi Yan, the current Prime Minister of the Imperial Capital!
It was also this man who was notorious in Jiang Xiaofan's eyes. It was because of him that the Northern Borderline had become so rotten.
Long Tian took a small step forward and looked at Jiang Xiaofan with a smile. "I know that you are very capable. I also know that the Imperial Equipment Department and the Imperial Medicine Department have achieved great results during the day and evening yesterday. They have changed the military strength of my Northern Borderline. However, I don't care about that. You just need to tell me, can you cure Xi'er's illness?"
Jiang Xiaofan grinned. "I'm not sure, but I think I should be able to cure her."
Jiang Xiaofan shrugged and continued to spin the walnut in his hand. His tone was light, as if he didn't see this matter as important.
This reaction made Long Tian frown. His eyes were filled with anger as he said, "You must cure Xi'er. Otherwise, I will make you fall as hard as I can make you climb!"
"I have my reasons for taking the initiative to suggest going to the Immortal Mansion. If you don't believe me, why did you agree to open the Immortal Mansion in advance?" Jiang Xiaofan said calmly.
Today, he was originally waiting for Bai Yichen and Long Xi to go to the Immortal Mansion. However, Long Tian had come and brought along Mi Yan, who made him jealous and disgusted. His words were so harsh, and he still wanted to be nice?
Pfft!
"Half a year later, I want to see Xi'er walk out of the Immortal Mansion alive and well and come to the palace. If she is missing even a single hair on her head, I will use your head to punish you!" Long Tian flicked his sleeves and glared at Jiang Xiaofan.
These members of the royal family were so stupid. In their eyes, anyone could be as lowly as an ant. This made Jiang Xiaofan very angry.
Jiang Xiaofan would feel disgusted as long as there was such discrimination!
Bai Yichen did not put on any airs as a princess. Although Long Xi was arrogant and eccentric, she had a good upbringing. Jiang Xiaofan did not know how Long Tian was a father. He was simply an incapable ruler!
He allowed eunuchs to strengthen themselves in the court and treated the lives of others as nothing. This kind of ruler would sooner or later die in his own extravagance and indulgence.
Long Tian stood for a while, but Jiang Xiaofan did not pay attention to him. At this time, he slowly said, "If you can cure Xi'er, it will be a great merit. I can promote you to the Golden Armor Imperial Guard. There are hundreds of families in the Northern Borderline. The Jiang family moved out of the Imperial Capital a few hundred years ago and has probably always wanted to come back. If you can cure Xi'er, I can give you all these. "
Jiang Xiaofan snorted coldly and said, "Deal!"
Golden Armor Imperial Guard? Moved out of the Imperial Capital? Jiang Xiaofan was not interested in any of these. He was a person who liked to cure princesses.
Well, no one could escape the law of fragrance!
After watching Long Tian leave, Bai Yichen quickly walked up to him. She said angrily, "Big bastard, you are crazy. You dare to contradict the Emperor. Aren't you afraid of losing your head?"
"What's there to be afraid of? It's not like I haven't died before."
He was someone who had died once. He was not afraid of death. Did these powerful people want to threaten him? Sorry, he did not fall for it.
He was a person who was amenable to coaxing but not coercion.
If you were strong, you could be strong. If you gave him half a point, he would lose. But if you were to act coquettishly with a cute girl, the rich would give money, and the powerful would give officials, then everyone would still be good friends.
This was the principle.
"Master, you are so amazing. Xi'er likes you more and more." Long Xi had never seen anyone who dared to contradict her father like this. If not for Jiang Xiaofan, she would never have seen this scene in her life.
Where else could she find such a manly man?
At this moment, Wei Qing also walked forward. This time, he followed Bai Yichen to the immortal abode to cultivate. He glanced at Jiang Xiaofan and did not say anything. He only sighed in his heart. Jiang Xiaofan was a sharp blade. If used well, he could make the Imperial Capital prosperous and peaceful. If not, he could cause chaos in the Northern Border.
Jiang Xiaofan opened his hands. At this moment, he suddenly thought of something. He took out a medicine bag from his chest and handed it to Bai Yichen. "Yichen, these are the elixirs I refined for you. There is an entire year's supply inside. You and Senior Wei Qing will cultivate in the immortal abode. Eat one every day. If you are lucky, it is not impossible for you to break through the shackles."
Bai Yichen caught the elixir. If someone else said this, she would not believe it. How could there be such a miraculous elixir in this world? However, since Jiang Xiaofan said it, she believed it without a doubt.
"Master, have you forgotten about me?" Long Xi stood beside Jiang Xiaofan and pouted.
Jiang Xiaofan reached out and patted her head gently. "Forget about you? In the next six months, we will be together. I can forget anyone but you. "
Then, the seven of them walked towards the east city gate. At this moment, Ye Yi and Ye Hao were waiting with over a hundred imperial guards. The cultivators heading to the immortal mansion arrived in twos and threes.
There was no need to mention the selectors. The 20 bureaucrats were basically some high-ranking officials. Everyone knew that. As for the relatives of the emperor, they were basically people from the Long Family and the Bai Family.
These people from the Long Family had cold expressions. They probably thought that they were of high status and were used to being arrogant. On the other hand, the Bai Family was very different. It could be seen that King Pingwei, the head of the Bai Family, definitely had good management.
Seeing Jiang Xiaofan, Ye Hao walked over and said, "You're quite early."
"Of course. If I was late, my intestines would be green with regret." Jiang Xiaofan replied with a smile.
Ye Hao patted Jiang Xiaofan on the shoulder and said, "Brother, when you come out in half a year, you will probably be very different. I have to wish you good luck in advancing to the peak of the Martial King Realm."
"Hahaha, thank you for your auspicious words."
"Everyone is here!" Ye Yi was holding a list in his hand. After checking everyone's identity, he called out.
Then, everyone set foot on the road to the immortal mansion!
All the stories were about to unfold again!
No one knew what was waiting for Jiang Xiaofan ahead. This was fate!
